Show me your compact pedalboard setup

[map34157]

Right on. How's it compare with running at 9v? I assume that's about getting more clean headroom, rather than, say, keeping the low end intact? I find some drive pedals that aren't oriented for bass can suck out too much bottom

Yeah I think at 9v it may break up earlier. I’ve always ran it at 18v and keep the bass knob between noon-3. Never had any low end loss issues.

I’m trying an (almost) all dirt, all the time approach to my compact board…

 

[BklynKen]

Would've been more compact if it weren't for side jacks.

Like the title suggests, I want to see pictures of small tight boards. I own a pedaltrain junior and find it large to move around but I do anyway because I use everything in it for my sabbath tribute gig and some synth rap stuff I'm starting.

However for my punkska band its overkill. Im planning on getting or building a second board and I don't plan on using much more than 3 effects (at most) and for very little of the songs covered. Overdrive that can double as mild distortion, envelope filter and maybe chorus. Are there pedal power supplies smaller than the standard that powers 8 or 9 pedals?

Here's my main board which won't change by the way. I want something atleast half in size in weight, maybe a third would be ideal.

Suggestions and pics please...

A 90-degree solution to my Bassrig SV not quite fitting on my Nano+. Not sure if I’ll keep it like this, but it’s an always-on pedal to make my IEM rig sound more amp’like, so accessing the footswitch is a non-issue since it engages when powered on.

The perspective makes it look longer than the board, but it’s actually a perfect fit.

Made a new pedalboard yesterday from an Ikea shelf. Wanted a board that fitted in a case that I already have. Came out nice and it was fun to do. Same old pedals.

What’s the signal path?

What’s the signal path?

Inst to Finally DI
DI Thru to tuner
Tuner through chorus in physical order.
Chorus to Digbeth
Digbeth link ( a dry thru ) to supervintage.

Trying something new with this. Not even sure if everything will be in phase. Still need to test drive it all

Have you tried the Digbeth yet? What are your thoughts?

Not yet. I took a bunch of fliers on this that I hope don't come back to bite me. The Digbeth, Super Vintage and Finally all sounded consistently good in the sound samples I heard so I am not too concerned

Got a quick 15min with it with the P bass. Everything seems in phase. I have a lot of dialing in to do to really take advantage of what this should have to offer

Just added a HPF, and not only did it fit nicely, on my compact board, it made a YUGE difference in the quality, and tone, of my sound.

Head: GK Legacy 800
Cabs: GK 4X10 + 2X10.

Homemade compact pb—a lot of work, but worth the time …

I have refined the layout and pedal selection. Also cleaned up some awkward cabling by changing the layout.

The fuzz is likely a placeholder until I can track down an mxr vintage octave.

Tightening things up again...

 

[pbass6811]

Still trying to keep it as small as possible...

Main setup:

Going for a more modern sound with my other project:

Both boards are powered by a Cioks DC7, but the HXS and the Strymon pedals just get moved back and forth as necessary.

Slight change up from my recent last post. I’m getting to only what I use in one of my bands.

The white MBD-1 is such a great looking pedal. So simple and clean.
